Six million children in Indonesia risk losing their intelligence quotient (IQ) of 10 to 15 points. The prevalence of stunting in children aged five years in West Java Province is 20.2% and in Bogor Regency is 18.7%. This research is an analytical research with a sectional cross-section design. The population is all children under five in Leuwiliang District, Bogor, and a sample of 414 children under five. will be held in May 2022. The data were analysed univariately, bivariate, and multivariate.

Simultaneously, stunting in children under five is caused by mothers with a height of less than 150.0 cm, a birth weight of less than 2500.0 g, and inadequate protein intake. It is sought that from the moment the baby is given good protein for the physical growth and development of the child's brain, maintaining pregnancy so that the baby is born normally (≥2500.0g) and since the child or adolescent consumes a balanced nutritious food so that the height of the woman is 150.0 cm]]>
